Resolution
Marie Bush has filed a claim against the City of Miarni in the
sum of $2000,00, which included $891.94 for out of pocket eX-
penses for medical drugs etc.
Mrs. Bush claimed that she tripped over a broken sidewalk located
ift front of 60 Northeast 50th Street, Miami, Florida on April 18,
1976.
The Torts Division of the Law Department has investigated this
tlaim thoroughly and found that the above mentioned sidewalk is
owned and maintained by the City of Miami and said sidewalk was
broken at the time of this alleged fall. The sidewalk was repaired
by the City of Miami Public Works Department after this alleged
fall.
Three (3) witnesses were found at the accident side location veri-
fying the claimant's story as to the cause of her fall and the in-
jury involved.
After negotiations and on the recommendation of Mr. Mario Santana,
Legal Investigator, the claimant on the above claim has agreed to
settle in full for the amount of $1000.00.
It is my recommendation that this case be settled for the above
amount of $1000.00.
